Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft to receive Curse of Naxxramas expansion in July

Blizzard will release Curse of Naxxramas, the first expansion for free-to-play card battler Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft in July, according to a post on the game's official forums.

Community manager Aratil wrote,"Just wanted to give everyone a head's up that we are currently targeting to release Curse of Naxxramas during the month of July. Unfortunately, we still have a lot of implementing and bug fixing to get through, so please stay tuned!"

No word on pricing yet, but Artil says we should find out more soon. "With that said, we are also targeting to reveal pricing details regarding Curse of Naxxramas next week on July 1st, so please keep an eye out for that."

The news follows a big leak of Naxxramas content this week, which you can check out here. The new cards and content are based on the Naxxramas dungeon found in parent game World of Warcraft, with the player facing five special undead bosses, each with their own tricks, in a singleplayer adventure mode.
